Mr. Keyworth. however, limited as wen* the oilier speakers to ten minutes, made the best use of the time alloted hlm hy touching lightly on two subjects which wero BtiggeBted to him by words whicli arc recurring sn often during the present war. The first of these is humanity, a quality next to Divinity itself, which rightly understood und practised is f nothing more nor loss than the doc- |i trine of Christ. The other word is The Sunday School Class of Mi-.

Ile bad asked the Secretary '> und so limited in the scope to which tn prepare a short resume of the I wn exercise it. work that hud been done and that ! Another word, recurring ao often which was projected, in order that ; during the last three years aa to he each member might be familiar with i familiar to everybody and from its the work of the Board and able to [ association, iu view of the alms of our give it liis Intelligent support. The Secretary's report follows: At this luncheon, tbe lirst of Us kind that hus proved a success in Cranbrook, it is not thc Intention of tlie Council to Inflict the members with details of the work done so far during the year but to summarize as much ns possible in order to give each member present an intelligent idea of what is being done for the good of the district and Incidentally for the good of each member, not ^^^^^^^^^ only of the Board of Trade but of ship on the miner und prospector country und our allies, beginning to "stink In our nostrils" Is Neutrality. In connection with this phase of his subject Mr. Keyworth reud a poem by Win. Watson, sent by Lord Fisher to America upon the occasion of thnt country requesting the FirBt Sea Lord to send it a message. .Mr. oJseph Ryan spoke on the New .Mining act and proposed some changes that tie claimed would work less hard- nd the District ns well. The lirst matter tuken up by the Hoard during the present year was tho passenger accomodation on the Crow, This matter has been settled, according tu our request, by the reinstatement of the Local. In getting Ibis service we hud the hearty cooperation ot the Hoards of Trade of Lethbridge and Kernie. Another matte- taken up Is tbe freight rate on grain between here and Fort William. This matter Is not yet settled but the committee is working on it.

"Previous to the war we thought i free trado mean) the prevention of ' war; that so long as we Imd tin* open door Germany would never risk tli" ; loss of her trado by Indulging lu war. Wo want nl cheap commodities but the war has dropped tho Bcales from ' eyes.

How i silly we were in tho pant to have an j open door as against a closed door! I think wo want tn give tbem tit for lat in the future. It used to be said that no trade union leader believed in a policy of that kind. We cannot say that today. Australia is a protected country, and tbe standard of living there Is the highest In the world. So-called inrlf reform or protection dues not mean tin* lowering of the standard of lire."

When you trade at this store your mind is "relieved from doubt or uncertainty" because you are guaranteed 'satisfaction if any article purchased here and found not right you have ample "Redress", bring it back and exchange it or get your money. As we buy only "Guaranteed" goods you will do us a favour by letting us know if ihey are "satisfactory" or nol, lhal is the only way we can gel the much desired information.

Difficult to realize, but a fact nevertheless! Such is the position of tho Non- Piirtizan League of Kast Kootonay. The idea uncurled itself in some-one's brain, that since we were about to admit a large body nf persons (heretofore not technically considered to bo *.*,* persons) to thu franchise, aud since | of sailed the lorty peaks nf political intrigue, it would he well to gather them into some league wherein thoy might together consider tlieir new privileges and the problems Involved.

Ami Q fiscal syslem tliat has been found detrimental to Britain - with its Isolated position aud water communication with the world—would ho almost suicidal for a country like Canada, with its immense inland territory and long railway hauls. it is admitted, of course, that the protective system has not heen scientifically applied or judiciously administered In Cauada. Tiiere are many things to be desired in connection with Its application. While favoring protection, The News-Telegram has always been of the opinion that the average Canadian tariff is about forty per cent ton high, hi addition to that j we shniild in this country liave an! excise tariff for ijopiostlc manufactures tiiat will In* operated in con- jnnciion with the import tariff. That j excise tariff would compel Canadian manufacturers m share with the people who extend them import tariff j protection and profits made through that protection, and would prevent j them from putting down iu their own ■pockets any extra profits mnde possible through protection. By using judiciously lhe ainoimt BO received from an excise tariff otlier taxes could be so reduced as to perceptibly lighten the burdens of tin- people aud distrl- ilo'iti a that tiiere is good reason for a revision of tiie tariff downward, oven though free trade is out of the question. That being so, we think thfl wise plan on the part of the farmers would be to revise the tariff plank In their platform. There are net many out- and-out free traders in Canada; but there are very few people who bave any defence for tlie present high tariff. With the Western farmers on tiie one hand demanding free trade, anil the Kastern manufacturer:, demanding high protection, the real desires of the great mass of moderate-minded people and the ideal fiscal system for a country like Canada are being defeated. There Is a splendid opportunity, just at this time, for tlie whole Western people to get toge! her aud form a Western party tl at will make its Influence felt in parliament. But to make that influence felt, our demands must be reasonable and of a kind that will appeal for support to other parts of tlie country. And. If one of those demands is for a lower tariff instead for free trade, as the Western farmers would attempt to force it. wi' would get other support, and it would be a source of strength to the whole cause of Western Canada, aud enable us to secure many reforms that we sorely need, but which are being indefinftotly postponed because of an attitude with respect to the tariff for instance, tluit does not appeal as reasonable to the people in other parts of Canada.
